• VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor
An optional USB flash device with VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor software is available for purchase.
Hypervisor is virtualization software that enables multiple operating systems to run on a host system
at the same time. The USB embedded hypervisor flash device installs in the USB connector on the
system board. For more information about using the embedded hypervisor, see "Using the embedded
hypervisor" on page 95.
• Remote presence capability and blue-screen capture
The remote presence and blue-screen capture features are integrated functions of the Integrated
Management Module II (IMM2). The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
– Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz, regardless of the system
state
– Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client
– Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO
and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server
– Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive
The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server
when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the
blue-screen capture feature to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.
• Ethernet controller configuration
For information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see "Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller"
on page 98.
• Configuring RAID arrays
For information about configuring RAID arrays, see "Configuring RAID arrays" on page 98.
• Advanced Settings Utility (ASU) program
Use this program as an alternative to the Setup utility for modifying UEFI settings and IMM settings. Use
the ASU program online or out of band to modify UEFI settings from the command line without the need
to restart the server to access the Setup utility. For more information about using this program, see
"Advanced Settings Utility program" on page 99.

Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD

Use this information as an overview for using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD.
The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD provides software setup tools and installation tools that are
designed for your server. The ServerGuide program detects the server model and optional hardware devices
that are installed and uses that information during setup to configure the hardware. The ServerGuide
simplifies the operating-system installations by providing updated device drivers and, in some cases,
installing them automatically.
You can download a free image of the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD from
http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=SERV-GUIDE.
In addition to the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, you must have your operating-system CD to
install the operating system.
